About Me!

Welcome to the zoo! I'm Melissa, a mom who's truly living the life of Riley. I've been blessed with a wonderful husband, an absolutely amazing daughter, a happy home, a successful work life and much more! Thanks for taking a break from your journey to learn more about mine.

Colossal Christmas Countdown:

8 Days Until Christmas!

Since becoming a mom, I've learned to get ready and style my hair in almost half the time it used to take me before Riley was born. Of course, I've also discovered that good styling tools are essential to being able to look great in less time, but when I'm traveling and on the road, I don't want to have to lug my entire arsenal of products with me in order to look presentable. It would be very helpful to have the same high quality tools I use at home in a smaller size convenient for traveling.

Kymaro, the makers of a wide variety of health and beauty products, have created three travel hair styling tools which will have you looking great, while not overloading your overnight bag or suitcase. I had the opportunity to review all three of these items and three of my readers will have a chance to win one of each of these too!

I reviewed the following travel hair styling products from Kymaro:

Jet Flow Styler, which retails for $39.95, but is currently on sale for $19.95.

The Jet Flow Styler from Kymaro has the unique ability to cut your hair drying time in half thanks to its dual-bristle brush, which is not quite round and not quite flat. This brush also contains an airflow channel which redirects airflow so that your hair dries quicker and is more sleek and shiny too.

It also dry both the top and underside of your hair at the same time, which is why you will spend half as much time drying your hair with this styling brush. It can also lift and volumize your hair from root to tip and can even aid in styling your hair into flips, waves or curls! The Kymaro Jet Flow Styler is a total must for any busy mom and can aid you in gaining valuable minutes in the mornings when you're getting ready.

Next up in the Kymaro travel hair styling tools arsenal, is the Mini Hair Straightener. Although this flat iron is absolutely perfect for traveling due to its small size, it is also ideal for short hair, bangs and touch-ups. This flat iron is actually the size of a permanent marker, so it fits easily in your purse or carry-on bag.

As long as you have access to an electrical plug, you can style your hair anywhere! The Mini Hair Straightener's compact design also allows you to get right up to your roots, for more precise straightening and insane volume. It heats up in mere seconds and even comes complete with a 10 foot cord, which actually takes up much more room than the flat iron itself.

Finally, Kymaro realized that every woman needs a quality hair dryer in order to adequately style their hair in a short amount of time. I always hated lugging my huge hair dryer with me when I traveled, and absolutely love the small, compact design of the Kymaro Portable Hair Dryer.

This hair dryer provides 1875 Watts of power and the maximum temperature and airflow needed to help create shiny, smooth, frizz-free hairstyles. It has 2 speeds and 3 temperature settings as well as a cool shot button to lock your finished style in place. This portable hair dryer even comes with a concentrator attachment, a removable lint filter and a foldable handle. Now blow drying your hair can be fast, efficient and hassle-free!

Kymaro has created an entire collection of top quality hair styling tools for the busy lady on the go. Now, you no longer have to sacrifice great looks or a ton of space in your luggage in order to have the perfect hairdo, for Kymaro has come to your rescue!

Disclosure: I received the three travel hair styling tools discussed above from Kymaro in order to facilitate my review. No other compensation was received. This product review is based on my own personal experiences with this item and is completely honest and objective.

I'm a former 7th grade Science teacher turned stay-at-home mom that lives in Houston, Texas. I am married to my college sweetheart and have a beautiful daughter named Riley, who definitely keeps me on my toes! I am also involved in starting a small business which would both manufacture and sell an invention that I've patented, called Toothpaste 2 Go. I love interacting with my readers and hope to learn as much about you as you learn about me!
